Hi,
Please consider promoting the use of tinfo flag in packages that
depend on sys-libs/ncurses so that they would synchronize properly
with sys-libs/ncurses[tinfo].
It could be as simple as:
IUSE="tinfo"
RDEPEND="sys-libs/ncurses[tinfo=]"
pkg_setup() {
use tinfo && export LDFLAGS="-ltinfo ${LDFLAGS}" LIBS="-ltinfo ${LIBS}"
}
The last line can be changed/enhanced, depending on the package.
It helps keep binaries consistent even if sys-libs/ncurses[-tinfo]
gets recompiled to sys-libs/ncurses[tinfo], because they are forced to
be recompiled. This is better than hard-coded dynamic workarounds.
